[Hiring] Director, Product Management @Prokeep

Role Description

We're looking for a Director, Product Management to lead execution on high-impact products that drive company-wide growth. Our CPO sets the vision — you'll turn it into a roadmap, own it, and drive it forward yourself alongside a small team of PMs and designers.

This is a hands-on, player-coach role. You'll spend the large majority of your time in the work — talking to customers, shaping strategy, and shipping — not running a management layer. If you're looking for a role that's primarily meetings and oversight, this isn't it. If you want to own outcomes and build a team around your own example, it is.

Key Responsibilities

• Strategy Execution
  • Translate the CPO's product vision and growth objectives into clear, functional execution strategies that drive customer impact.
  • Own the company roadmap and determine what product or feature to build and when to build it.
  • Provide medium-term planning to ensure alignment between day-to-day product decisions and long-term company strategy.
  • Drive cross-functional coordination across product, design, engineering, marketing, operations, and customer success.
  • Act as the counterpart to the Engineering Leader.
• Team Leadership & Culture
  • Lead a small team as a player-coach, carrying your own product workstreams while coaching others to sharpen their skills and grow their careers.
  • Coach in the workflow, minimizing separate management overhead.
  • Foster a product culture grounded in ownership, impact, measurement, and collaboration.
  • Champion an outcome-based product development approach focused on solving real customer problems.
  • Ensure your team members are motivated, supported, and continuously growing in their roles.
• Operational
  • Ensure the roadmap stays grounded in customer insight, data, and market dynamics.
  • Personally own product workstreams, not just oversee them — ensuring progress on all initiatives and leading by example.
  • Build and refine product development processes and systems in partnership with engineering leadership.
  • Play the Sr. PM role within specific swim lanes, leading by example while delegating other workstreams to your team.
  • Help ensure scalable, repeatable processes are in place for prioritization, execution, and measurement.

Qualifications

• 8–10+ years in product roles, ideally at a fast-growing SaaS or technology company.
• 2+ years managing product managers and designers.
• Experience owning and shipping multiple successful products at scale — not just features.
• Comfortable taking strategic direction and independently translating it into an executable roadmap.
• A track record of hands-on ownership — you'd rather be building the thing than managing the people building it.
• Experience influencing or leading cross-functional partners, even if not through formal authority.

Preferred Qualifications

• Early employee at a high-growth startup.
• Familiarity with general manager structures and outcome-based accountability.
• Experience in wholesale distribution or the trades.

Benefits

• Competitive Compensation: Reflecting your expertise and impact.
• Equity Package: Your success is our success—share in the growth you’ll help create.
• Comprehensive Benefits: Health, dental, vision, life, short & long-term disability, 401(k), and employee assistance program (EAP).
• Flexible PTO: Recharge and refocus with the flexibility to manage your time with no preset limits.
• Continuous Growth: Yearly education stipend to support your professional development.
